The National Muzzle Loading Association Western Shoot the first week of March at the Ben Avery Range just north of Phoenix will be holding a NMLRA cannon training certification course if there is any interest.  I will be attending with my tubes and will hold a certification class on muzzle loading artillery on Friday or Saturday if there is any interest.  Participants will receive a NMLRA cert for attending the course.  Any one who wants to be an instructor for a future course or have an instructors cert should also take the course.  Contact me for info.  Cap Cresap 661 297 2010

Neff Cannons will be at the Big Reno Gun Show, Reno Nevada 11 -13th of March.   Will be displaying our Artillery and historical flags.
 This is a fine show, one of the best in the west with Guns, Military and Collectibles.  With almost 1-1/2 acres of floor space, the show is well worth the time.. If their, stop in and say hello.

I see that the Grayling, MI Long Range Artillery Competition will be July 30, 31 this year.  Too bad, as I have to be at a traditional archery festival in Pennsylvania that same weekend.
